5.0 out of 5 stars I bought this book as a gift...., 5 April 2006
By A Customer
I would heavily recomend this book to any godfather or film fan.

I received this book this morning, it's a gift for my boyfriend, and i have been flicking through it. It has pictures, behind the scenes information, information on how francis ford coppola tackled the film and has information from his archives. I love it, and i am not half as big a godfather fan as my boyfriend, My natural interest for film means i find this book interesting.

I would definatly advise you to read this book, just from flicking through i may keep it for myself!

Also the picture is very misleading, the book is quite big and has a glossy cover, glossy pages and looks very smart!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better and more informative than The Godfather Legacy, 17 Feb 1999
By A Customer
I first bought The Godfather Legacy and it was interesting, but more on a Behind-The-Scenes level. The Godfather Book, goes more in evaluating the movies, Part 2 of the book especially. A must read for any Padrino-phile.

5.0 out of 5 stars Literate, fresh & fascinating analysis of 3 important movies, 8 Jun 2000
By A Customer
This isn't just an important book for Godfather fans, it's an important book for all movie fans.

It gives an in-depth and intelligent view of the struggles of making major motion pictures and also shows even the most obsessed fans, just how smart and multilayered the Godfather films really are.

More essentially, however, it manages to convey the value that truly great cinema adds to all our lives.
